Bhopal’s political circles buzzed as Sadhavi Pragyasingh Thakur, the firebrand ex-MP, weighed in on the Bhojshala controversy, rejecting any curbs on Hindu rituals at what she terms Maa Saraswati’s eternal temple.
Respecting judicial authority, she qualified the Supreme Court’s intervention as interim relief. ‘It facilitates prayers for Muslims and pujas for us temporarily. However, this site, scarred by historical invasions, calls for a definitive reclamation as a Hindu temple.’
She chronicled the painful legacy of temple desecrations under foreign rulers. ‘Mosques erected on demolished shrines symbolized oppression. Hindus, long oppressed, are now rising to restore dignity – not through revenge, but righteous revival.’
Targeting Congress, Sadhavi accused them of systemic bias. ‘Decades of their rule saw Hindus sidelined, with no redress for sacred losses like Bhojshala.’
Advocating un fettered access, she affirmed, ‘In free India, all enjoy worship rights, yet Hindus safeguard their dharma jealously. No meddling allowed – ever.’
With ASI reports and court hearings intensifying, her proclamation amplifies the Hindu resurgence narrative, promising prolonged battles for sites intertwined with India’s civilizational memory.
